The Nebraska Huskers Women’s Volleyball Team successfully defeated the Michigan Wolverines in yet another clean sweep this season. The Wolverines had entered the territory of the Huskers to seek revenge for their previous humiliation. However, they ended up taking another big loss on 17 November.

The Nebraska Huskers utterly ruled the volleyball court right from the get-go and stifled the offense of the Wolverines. A social media post broke the news of the impeccable win of the Huskers over Michigan. With this victory, the Huskers won all its home-court matches this season, a feat they achieved for the first time since 2017.

Sealing the final home match with a massive clean sweep

The Nebraska Huskers played their final home-court game of the 2023 regular season. The Michigan Wolverines badly struggled against the Huskers as they lost the match with scores of 15-25, 12-25, and 20-25. While Michigan found some breathing room in the final set, they failed to convert the set into a victory. The tweet’s caption carried the emojis of a house and a sweeping broom, indicating a home sweep.

With this victory, the Huskers bolstered their top spot in the NCAA with a 26-0 record. The Huskers will now embark on their final road trip and finish their final three matches.
